French niche line Pierre Guillaume has introduced 22.1 Tigre d’Eau, a new 'balmy fougère" fragrance. Tigre d’Eau is the second fragrance in the series that started with 22 Djhenné.
Second proposal of the “Fougère” theme, after the amber version of Djhenné 22, Tigre d’Eau 22.1 frees itself from the clichés of this olfactory family. The expected power and freshness take on a vegetal form, a vital sap, sweet and salty, between chlorophyll and a tasty infusion of citrus fruits, spices and balms.
THE INSPIRATION Vegetal bite and balmy caress… The olfactory allegory of a white tiger lying in fresh grass.
THE PERFUME The biting freshness of coconut water infused with grapefruit zest and pink pepper is matched by the silky, enveloping warmth of a heart of fern with a twist of chlorophyll and salted caramel.
Additional notes include tonka bean.
Pierre Guillaume Tigre d’Eau is available in 50 and 100 ml Eau de Parfum.

I’ll try anything by PG, even if it has a coconut note! This sounds fascinating.
Has anyone tried Tonka Bodykon? What did you think of it?
I tried it and liked it. It’s a sweet-ish gourmand amber, definitely in the PG style that he’s covered in other scents, though not as heavy.
I liked Djhenne, too, so looking forward to trying this one!
Thanks, SarahN! I hope I can try it soon.
Report back if you try this one, I’m intrigued by pink grapefruit + coconut + caramel. Could be fun!
Same here, Robin. The combination of notes is rather unusual. I’ll report back!
